That little sand bar that I showed Clark shelling on has turned HUGE! This is the same place that I took a picture of on my post &#8220;Warming to 49&#8221; looking at the 4th and 5th picture down. Crazy! There are so many different shells, I can&#8217;t even name them all. There are still the dead (frozen) fish and starfish but there are lots of WHELKS, CONCHS&#8230;&#8230;.etc. It would great to spend a few hours there sifting through. Remember, if you aren&#8217;t staying on West Gulf Dr and don&#8217;t have an A parking pass, you have to get to West Gulf by bike or walk the beach&#8230;..(or risk getting a parking ticket).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know this has nothing to do with shelling, but I had to take a picture of these gorgeous samoans, Kaila and Kotton, on the beach.
